The commit message is wrong, you can actually describe USB devices in 
DT, see e.g. Linux:

arch/arm/boot/dts/st/stm32mp15xx-dkx.dtsi:              compatible = 
"usb424,2514";

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/usb/microchip,usb2514.yaml:          - 
usb424,2514

However, it seems this particular compatible string is ad-hoc and 
unused. I wonder if this might break some users like RPi which supply 
external DT and may depend on this support ?
